I have been having a very hard time getting my '53 H to stay charging for any length of time, {more than a few days}. I have had the generator rebuilt at my local shop, and replaced the regulator as well. This works for a few days then it quits charging again. When I took the parts back to my repairman to be tested, the regulator was bad again. I have repeated this process three times getting regulators from my repairman and from NAPA. I finally got fed up and took the tractor to my repairman so he could be sure it was wired correctly and installed properly. He says it is. He believes that is faulty regulators he is buying. He took one of my bad ones apart to show me where the contacts are coming loose from their mount, when he touches it it begins charging again. He wants to find an OEM regulator which we believe would be a Delco Remy unit. Does anyone know where we can find one? It is a 6v pos. ground system. I would convert it to 12v but it cranks over well and starts easily so it shouldn't be necessary, and I plan on restoring it so I would like to keep it original. I have a lot of faith in my repairman, I have been taking generators, starters, etc. to him for 25 years, and I believe what he says so I would like to help him find what he needs.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
